An electrolyte of a polymer-salt complex of poly(ethylene oxide)-LiCF$_{3}$SO$_{3}$ is shaped into a free standing circular film of $20 \ mm$ diameter and a thickness of $20 \ \mu m$. When it is sandwiched between $2$ stainless steel circular electrodes of the same diameter, this cell exhibits a conductance of $\frac{314}{5} \ S$. What is the specific conductivity of the electrolyte?

  • A
    $4 \ mS \ cm^{-1}$
  • B
    $0.4 \ S \ cm^{-1}$
  • C
    $40 \ mS \ cm^{-1}$
  • D
    $0.004 \ S \ cm^{-1}$
